Possible disruption at Pex Hill -
We have been informed that the landowner plans to undertake significant work which may result
in large portions of the car-park being closed off. If you are planning on visiting the observatory,
please keep an eye on our Twitter account for updates (you don't need to have Twitter yourself to view it).
The latest information as of Friday 21st September is that the on-going work will continue into 2019 and will mean restricted access and parking. We intend to continue with the meetings on Wednesday evenings as long as it is safe to do so.
Anybody that visits MUST park safely and allow the access of emergency services at all times.
